Blynd Submyshynz Episode 48: Brett Morris from Man Man and Who Charted?

Do not skip this one. Today's guest is Brett Morris, guitar player for Sub Pop Records weirdos Man Man and Mister Heavenly (w/members of Islands, Man Man, Modest Mouse, and The Shins). The Man Man Record Dream Hunting in the Valley of the In-Between was one of Jeff's favorite records in 2020, and he also shares a deep love of Mr. Bungle. Oh, and music would probably be considered his side-hustle; he's also a podcast engineer/producer and on-air personality for Earwolf podcasts Who Charted?, Off Book, Improv for Humans, Comedy Bang Bang, Hollywood Materclass, Estates of Perfection, The Neighborhood listen, and more.We talked to Brett about growing up in the bay area and how he got interested in music, as well as what it's like for a musician and audio engineer to infiltrate the world of elite sketch, improv, stand-up, and TV/film comedy. Brett has literally been in the room with all of the funniest people working in comedy today.We also listened to music, like usual, and one of the submissions actually came from an old friend of JD's, and was produced by past guest Andy Patterson...and it was a gem. We talked the plight of small venues, and the Improv4humans4music vinyl record which Brett produced...all the live recordings from musicians who played on the podcast, and proceeds go to NIVA (National Independent Venue Association).Brett is a Busy ManMan Manhttps://manmanbandband.bandcamp.com/album/dream-hunting-in-the-valley-of-the-in-betweenMister Heavenlyhttps://misterheavenly.bandcamp.com/releasesWho Charted?https://www.earwolf.com/show/who-charted/Off Bookhttps://www.earwolf.com/show/off-book/Improv4humanshttps://www.earwolf.com/show/improv4humans/Improv4humans4music Vinylhttps://www.newburycomics.com/products/various_artists-improv4humans4music_vol_1_exclusive_lpHollywood Masterclasshttps://www.stitcher.com/show/hollwood-masterclassEstates of Perfectionhttps://www.stitcher.com/show/estates-of-perfectionThe Neighborhood Listenhttps://www.earwolf.com/show/the-neighborhood-listen/The Gino Lombardo Showhttps://www.stitcher.com/show/the-gino-lombardo-showThis Week's SubmissionsHeadlesshttps://headless-official.bandcamp.com/album/square-oneThe Angelushttps://store.theangelusband.com/album/why-we-never-dieRotten Musicianshttps://rottenmusicians.bandcamp.com/album/grossiesSon of Samhttps://sonofsamband1.bandcamp.com/album/and-the-monster-awokeBands!
